In March of 2023 The Florida Lottery implemented two Florida Fantasy5 drawings per day and absolutely ruined the game! Prior to March of 2023 jackpots got as high as $235,000, especially after The Snowbirds arrived in Florida for the winter. Now total jackpots for both drawings has shrunk to about $180,000. Florida Fantasy5 players walked away from the game in droves. You can easily see that by the size of the jackpots and also the number of rolldowns. Rolldowns have become a very commo

Well it's been a heck of a long time since I posted here so I thought I'd put out a few things that might be of interest to players. ROLLDOWNS!! There have been quite a few of them since they went to two FF5 drawings per day..especially with the midday drawings. And dont think just because nobody won the jackpot that a four out of five number match will get you $555.00. Most times it will, but not always...last night's 4 out of 5 winners won a whopping $322. Number 27 is still the hotte

Good luck winning it. I tried for years and couldn't do it. I tried studying the numbers and looked at it from all kinds of different angles. The odds make it near impossible to get much out of it. Now with lower jackpots I don't care to continue to chase. It takes near 80-1 odds to just win a small dollar amount prize. Getting 4 numbers is very rare and all 5 seems a lot harder than what the odds say.

I've tried Caspernina's method with Florida Fantasy5 many times..... But without much success! Could be that Fantasy5's 5/36 matrix as opposed to Take5's 5/39 matrix has something to do with that. But playing Repeaters and Adjacents is a good strategy with Fantasy5 as Repeaters are drawn in almost 50% of all drawings and Adjacents appear quite often too. The big problem with Fantasy5 is the low pay outs for a 3 out of 5 match. It's 10 bucks if you're lucky and it's about $125 for a f

Not for nuthin', but the addition of the midday drawing has changed the characteristics of FF5 with regard to the number of times a hot number hits. I made an Excel spreadsheet for FF5 that goes back to 2002. It shows the number of hits that the hottest number of each year had which fall into a range of 61 to 68. By June 30th of any given year I could easily see which number was going to end the year as the hottest number because it had 31 to 34 hits on June 30th. So I'd give extra play to t
